What a movie, what an awesome, awesome movie! It might not have as much gear shifting as Fast and Furious 7, but Mad Max: Fury Road makes us giddy with excitement, especially after watching the latest two and a half minute trailer.
Let's just round up the actors and the ridiculous body mods they underwent for Mad Max. First of all, the lead is none other than Tom "do you think this gives you power over me" Hardy. After that, we have Charlize Theron with no hair and a metal hook for an arm. And you know what? She's still sexy as hell when she drives that car like a madman… I mean madwoman.
In the film, Max escapes from the stronghold of the bad guy, who looks a bit like Bane. And he also has a bunch of virgins along for the ride. One of them is the uber-sexy Rosie Huntington-Whiteley from Transformers, who in this post-apocalyptic world is forced to wear a chastity belt. Because when you have something that precious, you obviously need to keep it under lock and key.
Oh, and did we mention that Max's sidekick Nux is played by the talented Nicholas Hoult from Jack the Giant Slayer and the X-Men movies?
The cars are just as awesome as the ones from the original movies, and the special effects are even better. Most of the stunts are real, and I think in this day of Michael Bay robots, this stands for something.
Mad Max was supposed to come out in 2014, but because record rainfall hit the Australian outback where they were supposed to film, so everything had to be postponed. The wait is almost over, as the movie comes out on May 15th. But until then, enjoy 150 seconds of rampant explosions.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
